Efron’s Hiding Place

Movie star Zac Efron has found the perfect place to escape from pursuing paparazzi — he bribes security guards to let him hide in Hollywood studios.

The actor is hot property in Tinseltown and is among the top targets for Los Angeles’ intrepid tabloid photographers, who stalk his every move.

Efron endures daily battles with snooping snappers but is convinced he has found the ideal hiding spot. He disappears into an unnamed L.A. studio lot whenever he’s being followed.

The 21-year-old explains to GQ magazine, “I’ve kinda got it figured out. I just pull into the lot, and they can’t follow me.”

But the “High School Musical” star admits there’s a cost to the cunning hiding spot — he has to pay off security guards with signed memorabilia.

Efron adds, “The first time I did it, they weren’t going to let me in. The guy at the gate was like, ‘What are you gonna do for me?’ He’s like, ‘I got kids.’ And I was like, ‘Well, I got a poster in the trunk!’ It’s smart to keep some swag in the trunk, just in case.”
